I’ve noticed a lot of people here doing well with plexes and smaller multifamily, but curious who’s syndicating larger 50+ unit apartments?

OP what type and size of deals are you seeing flow? 

Mapping it out is easy using the lot size, sqft, bed/bath count, property type, local rents, and location.

Queens typically has larger lot sizes when compared to Brooklyn which could mean more access to private parking (driveway, garage) and other benefits.All the best to you on your search!

I’ve noticed many newer investors struggle when it comes to matching the right loan type to the project.
Would anyone find it helpful if I shared a few examples of how experienced investors structure their fix & ...

As mentioned by others, there are a few things to take into account.Here are the financing options and requirements based on the # of units:2-4 unit - Residential propertyMin 20% downDSCR 1.0+ (lower DSCR with higher down payment)No experience OR net worth requirement2-8 unit mixed use (commercial space can't exceed 49%)Min 25% downDSCR 1.2+Need to have investor experience of at least 1 yrNo net worth requirement5-10 unit - Residential propertyMin 25% downDSCR 1.2+No experience OR net worth requirement 10+ unit - Residential property (mixed used is possible)Min 20% downDSCR - Dependent on market size - can range from 1.25 - 1.5+At least 1 sponsor has to have investor experience - multi-unit of approx similar size OR multiple smaller multi units adding up to at least 12 unitsCombined net worth of all sponsors should be greater than the loan amount - this is after the down payment and closing costs, and not counting equity in primary.

As others have stated, I would be very cautious jumping into a larger multifamily property starting out. 

They evaluate the breed/size/age/etc and give a score accordingly.

I am concerned that the local market will not support long-term rentals as I do not see any listed that are comparable size and bed/bath count.

Hey @Jeanette Land, I have a link in the bio of my BP profile to a calculator where you can size up your exit refinance and see exactly what potential monthly cash flow options would look like.
